spaswinefood: San José Bakeries: Oh, yes they have cupcakes too!

Artisan bakeries making everything from cupcakes to wedding cakes are all the rage these days. A friend of mine is getting married. She and her bridesmaids spent a whole day tasting cupcakes for the wedding. Spaswinefood explored bakeries where you can get whatever you your sweet tooth desires.

Yes, San José Bakeries are on Yelp ; now for the top ten. Then if you just want bakeries that make cupcakes. For example in downtown San Jose there is Loves Cupcakes at 85 East Fernando Street. You guessed it, Loves Cupcakes makes cupcakes.

Los Gatos has my absolute favorite bakery.

Icing on the Cake

Icing on the Cake 50 West Main offers many tempting sweets with great icing. The July day that I dropped by just after lunch, it was full. There all sorts o f mouth watering displays in the store. One display that I was drawn to was the cupcake display. Every time I turn on my computer these days there are cupcake advertisements dancing across by screening. Now, I am totally hooked on cupcakes.

Of course I had to have something to eat with my tea when I arrived back home. Since I know I am addicted to chocolate I thought I would have the Red Velvet Cupcake. Oh! My! Mmh! Mmh good! Now, I think I am addicted to Red Velvet Cupcakes! What do they put in them? Why is it so good?
